Which array? You can have arrays everywhere in memory, at any address,
ending anywhere.

union {
   struct {
      char ch1;
      char arr1[2];
   }
   struct {
      char arr2[2];
      char ch2;
   }
   struct {
      char arr3[3];
   }
}

Which is an array, and which is not? is &ch1 an array? and arr1? and
arr2+1? Why would the compiler choose one over another? And what about
arrays defined in other modules?
